Answer:
There is a 29.27% probability that the flight is overbooked. This is not an unusually low probability. So it does seem too high so that changes must be made to make it lower.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each passenger, there are only two outcomes possible. Either they show up for the flight, or they do not show up. This means that we can solve this problem using binomial distribution probability concepts.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And is the probability of X happening.
A probability is said to be unusually low if it is lower than 5%.
For this problem, we have that:
There are 200 reservations, so .
A passenger consists in a passenger not showing up. There is a .0995 probability that a passenger with a reservation will not show up for the flight. So .
Find the probability that when 200 reservations are accepted for United Flight 15, there are more passengers showing up than there are seats available.
X is the number of passengers that do not show up. It needs to be at least 18 for the flight not being overbooked. So we want to find , with
. We can use a binomial probability calculator, and we find that:
.
There is a 29.27% probability that the flight is overbooked. This is not an unusually low probability. So it does seem too high so that changes must be made to make it lower.
The formula for calculating the area of a circle is expressed as;
A = πr²
- Area of the pond = πr²
- Area of the path = Area of the path + pond - area of pond
- Area of path = π(r+1.5)² - πr²
Since the area of the path is equal to the area of the pond, hence;
π(r+1.5)² - πr² = πr²
Add πr² to both sides
π(r+1.5)² - πr² + πr² = πr² + πr²
π(r+1.5)² = 2πr²
(r+1.5)² = 2r²
Expand the parenthesis
r²+3r + 2.25 = 2r²
r²+3r + 2.25 - 2r² = 0
-r² + 3r + 2.25 = 0
r² - 3r - 2.25 = 0
Multiply through by 2
2r² - 6.0r - 4.5 = 0
<em>This proves the required equation</em>
